Washington Commanders
It’s week 16 of the NFL season and the 4-10 Washington Commanders will be facing a 9-5 Eagles team at home at Northwest Stadium on Saturday at 5:00 pm ET. The Eagles started the season extremely strong, going 8-3 to start the season, but lost 3 of their most recent 4 games before recovering with a blowout/shutout win against the Raiders last week.
On offense, the Eagles are in their first year with Kevin Patullo as OC and their fifth year of offensive-minded HC Nick Sirianni. The Eagles offense this year has been very up and down, with six games...

Tunsil’s absence means that Brandon Coleman, who stepped in for Tunsil last weekend, will likely get the start at left tackle — a position he held throughout his rookie season. Coleman had one of his best games of the season, according to Pro Football Focus, particularly as a pass protector. He allowed zero pressures on 14 pass blocking plays and earned a grade of 86.4 — his highest of the season.
Coleman was originally the team’s starting left guard before being replaced by Chris...

The Commanders entered Week 15 with a question to answer. Were they the team that fought the Denver Broncos through a nail-biting loss in overtime, or was the team that got shut out by the Minnesota Vikings the following week closer to their true identity.
The 29-21 road victory over the division rival Giants was marred by mistakes and poor execution at times, but on balance the big plays and standout performances were enough to put Washington back in the win column for the first time since Week 5. Washington led the Giants from the field goal on the opening...

The Washington Commanders held their third, and final practice of a shortened week as they prepare to host the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday. Four players were ruled out, with another two listed as questionable. Jayden Daniels won’t be playing in the final three games, but has been practicing with the team.

Offensive Flexibility Allows Washington to Adapt
The Commanders have shown they can adjust offensively based on opponent and situation. They’ve faced significant adversity due to injuries in 2025, which has increased their ability to be flexible and adapt to new situations. Whether it’s leaning into a quicker passing game, spreading the field, or using motion to create mismatches, Washington has the tools to attack Philadelphia in multiple ways. Sustained drives — even if they end in field goals — can keep the Eagles’...

The Washington Commanders held their second practice of a shortened week as they prepare to host the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday. Three players didn’t practice today as they continue to deal with injuries across the roster. DT Eddie Goldman suffered a concussion against the Giants, and is still not practicing. He’s trending towards missing his second game this season.
TE Colson Yankoff was also injured against the Giants last Sunday. He suffered a new ankle injury and hasn’t practiced all week. Yankoff has been a core special teams player, and has seen limited action on offense. The Commanders lost starter...

Against Minnesota, Daniels was shoved to the ground while pursuing linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel, who had intercepted him. Daniels landed on his left elbow and stayed on the ground for a minute after the play before bouncing up and running to the sideline, clearly frustrated.
After the game, Quinn said Daniels could have returned to the game — he was never ruled out. But...

Adam Peters came to Washington with much fanfare.
Fresh off an NFC Championship game appearance in 2024, Peters decided to go all-in on the 2025 roster, mistakenly thinking the team was in win-now mode versus a rebuild done the RIGHT way.
The results – a bottom 10 team in the league and sitting home for the playoffs.
Now, injuries played a big part in Washington’s overall record this year, but could some better offseason planning have prevented this complete collapse?
Below I take a look as some of Peters’ moves, and debate what went right and what could have been...
